Up From Under |
Well Im down here in the well |
Looking back up at the hill |
Well I thank heavens I fell |
Must look more |
Like myself |
Now everyone is so kind |
Everyone looks like |
A long lost friend of mine |
Im on top of the world again |
When Im looking |
Up from under babylon |
I had a home in the fields |
Earned my wage in the factories there |
And I was raised by the mill |
And I worked with my brothers there |
I told my mother Id always write |
I headed west for the coast |
With the big city lights |
Now mamma Im so sorry Ive forgotten |
But now Im looking |
Up from under babylon |
Now tell me how far Ive been |
And how deep was I in Tell me how I conceived |
The vanity to believe |
That I would not be outnumbered |
By the thumbs I have been under |
Now stray dogs in the street |
Learn how to beg, steal, borrow and cheat |
And in the dead summer heat |
I fell asleep with blood on my teeth |
But those days before I met you girl |
Were just ice cream falling down |
On the shoes of my world |
Im so happy that youre my friend |
When were looking |
Up from under babylon |
When were looking |
Up from under babylon |
